À mots couverts
Synopsis
Twenty-five years after the genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda, filmmakers visit a country still haunted by the massacres of spring 1994. A group of inmates try to understand what made their participation in the fourth genocide of the 20th century possible. In Kigali Prison, some testify about their abuses against Tutsis. Directed by Violaine Baraduc and Alexandre Westphal as part of a thesis on the participation of women during the genocide, the film questions the generalization of violence to all layers of Rwandan society.
